Volume rendering came out in v1.4 of PyMOL. So, you should be set. The use of volume rendering for visualizing electron density, cryo-EM, and electrostatics has yet to hit its maturity. It's more flexible and beautiful than iso-contours -- and in fact can degenerate into iso-contours if you want. So you get your old representations (isomesh/isosurface) but you also get to visualize one or more ranges of data colored exactly as you want. And, coming soon, we'll be able to assign different density values to different scenes so that you can animate the transitions in movies. We are also planning on improving the PyMOL UI to make volumes easier to use.
